You can ask all you want but being able to get it when it will far exceed anyone else in the industry is another thing. We got C2K rates via pattern bargaining off of United. And they got it from pattern bargaining off of us. Who can we pattern off of now?
Would I like to have it? Heck yes I would! But I guess I'm just pessimistic (or realistic
) about being able to get it.
